Part II 17(14/23)

m not finished with

you yet,” he murmurs and leaning up, he kisses me.

I lie naked in Christian’s bed, sprawled over his chest,

panting. Holy cow—does his energy ever wane? Christian

trails his fingers up and down my back.

“Satisfied, Miss Steele?”

I murmur my assent. I ha一ve no energy left for talking.

Raising my head, I turn unfocused eyes to him and bask in

his warm, fond gaze. Very deliberately, I angle my head

down so he knows I am going to kiss his chest.

He tenses momentarily, and I plant a soft kiss in his

chest hair, breathing in his unique Christian smell, mixed

with sweat and sex. It’s heady. He rolls onto his side so

I’m lying beside him and gazes down at me.

“Is sex like this for everyone? I’m surprised anyone

ever goes out,” I murmur, feeling suddenly shy.

He grins. “I can’t speak for everyone, but it’s pretty

damned special with you, Anastasia.” He bends and kisses

me.

“That’s because you’re pretty damned special, Mr.

blinks down at me at a loss.

“It’s late. Go to sleep,” he says. He kisses me, then lies

down and pulls me to him so we’re spooning in bed.

“You don’t like compliments.”

“Go to sleep, Anastasia.”

Hmm . . . But he is pretty damned special. Jeez . . .

why doesn’t he realize this?

“I loved the house,” I murmur.

He says nothing for a moment, but I sense his grin.

“I love you. Go to sleep.” He nuzzles my hair, and I

drift into sleep, safe in his arms, dreaming of sunsets and

French doors and wide staircases . . . and a small copperhaired

boy running through a meadow, laughing and

giggling as I chase him.

“Gotta go, baby.” Christian kisses me just below my ear.

I open my eyes and it’s morning. I turn to face him, but

he’s up and dressed and fresh and delicious, leaning over

me.

“What time is it?” Oh no . . . I don’t want to be late.

“What time is it?” Oh no . . . I don’t want to be late.

“Don’t panic. I ha一ve a breakfast meeting.”
